Summary

In this study it is to be evaluated wether a restoration with composite resin fillings to reestablish a canine guidance will reduce masticatory muscle activity in patients with bruxism.

Conditions

  • Bruxism
  • Myopathy
  • Muscular Activity

Interventions

OTHER

Composite resin restoration

Masticatory muscular activity is measured before and after treatment with additive composite resin fillings (Tetric EvoCeram, Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein). A Grindcare (Medotech A/S, Herlev, Denmark) device is used for determination of muscular activity. A first measurement is conducted, followed by 4 weeks without any intervention. A second measurement is then carried out before restoration of the canine cusps with composite fillings. A third measurement is conducted, again followed by 4 weeks without any intervention. At last a final measurement is conducted.
